Manipur Chief Minister (CM) made an on‑site visit to L. Champhai village on Tuesday to examine a water pipeline that has been reported as damaged. The inspection was carried out after local residents raised concerns about disrupted water supply and visible cracks along the conduit.
During the visit, the CM met with village officials and engineers to understand the extent of the breakage and to discuss immediate remedial measures.
